Lorraine O. says, "Melvin and his crew recently did several big and small jobs for me and also for my daughter at her new home. His crew is outstanding! Melvin inspects and supervises all work done. He is on every job site and participates in the work being done. There is extreme attention to detail and he makes sure everything is done to the customers satisfaction. He is in constant contact with the customer to be sure there are no changes in the job and all needs are being met. I highly recommend this company for all renovation needs. In my townhouse they took down cabinets in the kitchen, rebuild and repaired walls and installed a counter depth refrigerator in a new location. They did painting, plumbing and electrical work. I think they are top notch and no they did not pay me for this recommendation!! I really do think they are amazing!"See more

Alexandra A. says, "JR and I just went through a massive renovation at my home in New Canaan, actually it’s still ongoing, not quite done. Everyone JR has brought in has been exceptional. Before I found JR I had hired another contractor to update my master bathroom. That contractor began in mid-October, it is now almost FEBRUARY and I felt bad so while JR was doing the rest of the house, I stuck with these guys but when I got so frustrated when they said the tile work would take another month. I said absolutely not, and had JR do it instead and not only did his guys come in and do the tile, they found things wrong with the plumbing and made the other contractor fix it. Thank goodness for JR, I don’t know where I’d be in this project, or what fortunes I would have spent. His prices are so reasonable you don’t believe it in the beginning! But once you start seeing the work come together you’re like, this is a godsend!"See more

Q & A

Answers to commonly asked questions from the experts on Thumbtack.

How do architects work?

Architects may work for an architecture or engineering firm, they may work for a government organization, they can work for a construction company, or they may be self-employed (freelance). The U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics explains that architects spend a large amount of their working time in the home or company office: meeting with clients; creating reports and architectural drawings; and working with other architects and engineers. When not in an office, an architect is often at the construction site either as part of the development of plans or to ensure building progress is following the blueprint.

When a client interacts with an architect, it is typically to have them design drawings for the construction of a house or a building. If you are a client who has hired a large architecture firm, there may be a team of people working on your design. But if you are working with a freelance architect or a smaller firm, one person (or a small group) will take your concept and translate it into an architectural blueprint that a builder can use to construct a house. The plans will lay out everything from the depth of the foundation to the materials to use to the type of metal to be used in the reinforcement. Once the plans have been created and handed off to the builder, the architect may remain on the project — depending on budget — and oversee progress.

How do architects charge for their services?

According to the U.S. Department of Labor, the median salary of an architect in 2016 was $76,930. This range included architects with every type of company as well as self-employed architects. Depending on the architect and whether they’re with a firm or independent, they may charge per hour or by the square foot, or they may charge a percentage of the total budget for a construction project. An hourly rate is typically used for smaller projects such as providing consultation, helping clients hone their concept before the design process begins, or drafting documents and plans. If an architect is working on an hourly basis on a larger project, there will usually be an agreed-upon cap on the number of hours they will work. For larger projects, such as new construction or total overhaul remodels, architects may charge a percentage of the total construction costs. The architect will usually set the percentage you will pay after the total cost of construction has been accounted for. Percentages can range within a firm depending on the extent of the services they’re providing. For example, a lower percentage of the total construction costs may include drafting and minimal consultation and guidance along the way, while a higher percentage could include on-site project management services with every detail attended to. Architects may also charge by the square footage of the project. The rate per square foot can vary depending on the individual’s training, the services they are providing, the complexity of the project, and other factors — such as obtaining permits. The national average cost to hire an architect is between $1,690 and $2,500.

What do house plans consist of?

In a house plan, you can expect to see an overview of the construction site, floor plans, roof plans, foundation plans, electrical plans, exterior elevation and more. Always ask your architect what they plan to include in your house plan.

Do general contractors offer remote or virtual services?

General contractors perform manual work and typically need to be present to complete their projects. However, if you come across a profile that states the contractor is offering remote services, ask what those services include. You can also ask if they can perform a consultation via video call and if they can do the job while following guidelines from the CDC and local agencies.
